Let's get Funkis

Another piece of Danish railway architecture. This time it is "Signalpost I" from the now abandoned Århus freight yard. It was erected in 1934 has all the hallmarks of the early 1930'ies and is in line with a lot of other prominent Danish buildings of the "Funkis" school (Fuktionalisme or functionalism a Danish take on the German Bauhaus philosophy) with its strict geometrical no BS layout, but still using traditional colours and materials, thus demonstrating that the DSB (Danish State Railways) of the time was modern but also very true to its heritage .

Very nice :)
 
That is actually beautiful...never thought I'd say that about a 70! Will both Freightliner and Colas liveries be produced?
Thanks- they kinda grow on you!

I'm planning on doing Freightliner only, assuming they give permission- I'm not a big fan of the Colas livery. However, as with the 66, I will probably allow reskins. If I can't do Freightliner then I guess it'll be 70099, or works primer...

Didn't know that. I always thought they debuted in Phase III.

Also, bonus image

It's why the white strip that passes thru the "Superliner" word is so thin, it lines up & flows into the white strip on Phase II.

The Hi-Levels even saw Phase I, which admittedly looked pretty bad on them.

I don't think that car is a Hi-Level. The car next to it is a Hi-Level, but that car looks different on the top half: it is slanted inward a bit, there is no corrugation on the top window band, and the visible part of the end looks off.

It's the 9901, one of the two Santa Fe Hi-Level prototype cars...
 
Very nice curves you got there Dan. ;) Do you think you could furnish the leading wheels with a few more lovely polygons, that'd make it perfect.
